Hello all.
    I'm planning a trip to Maine for September. I thought I'd visit The Good Life Center (Nearings' old homestead) while I'm there. Anyone know of anything else educational that I might be able to do while near Maine's coast? I'll likely be riding a bicycle for most of the trip. It's sort of a long eco-village, homesteading, ecological lifestyle tour.

The Common Ground Fair is worth going too.  It is September 24th, 25th, and 26th this year in Unity Maine.  There are lots of good  presentations and speakers.  
They also have the best fair food from local restaurants  and 2 farmers markets.  Most of the vendors are local and many are artists  hand crafted goods for sale too.    I have been twice and I would love to go again.  

They have camping in the area and special parking for people on bicycles.

Thank you for informing me of this... It looks like such a great event. Unfortunately, the Maine part of my trip will be over by that point, unless I reschedule everything last minute. Now I'm debating what to do!
 
I'd appreciate it if you pronounced my name correctly. Pinhead, with a silent "H". Petite ad:
